Today's episode stumped me. I never really expected the confrontation scene in the episode. I urge everyone who is a fan of storytelling, writing, to watch actually this whole week the development in the relationship between R&G. And the ones that like good acting and not just blank stares from their actors, just take a look at both the actors doing justice to their characters. Runjhun was vulnerable at times, but she comes back in the end and with her Neelu dialogue and Guddu, well he doesn't keep anything inside, he said it all!!! What an outstanding episode portraying the emotional conflicts of the characters. Very realistic in dealing with the inner turmoil of how one cannot become the ideal of the other. A person is who he/she is. Especially a strong male character like Guddu Shukla. He is who he is, either accept him as he is but he cannot change.
Its like you love the person for who they are, not for what you want them to become. Simply outstanding writing!
Two scenes stand out to me:
!) love the scene where R touches the pink saree Guddu had gifted her, and holds the dried jasmine flowers that also Guddu had gifted her and we now learn she has kept them. This was heartbreaking to watch. A girl who never had been given a gift by anyone and her first gift was from a stranger, her husband and she treasured that gift.
2) love the scene where he burns the shirts she had chosen for him. And in the end left all alone she sits on the dirty road crying. This scene balances and crosses out her earlier scene where she threw her wedding attire in the fire after he had touched it.
Now, both characters hopefully after dealing with the Neelu business start their relationship with a clean state.
Like the precap, where Amma says for R to deal with the situation herself.
This confrontation is what R needed towards her journey of becoming self aware, of becoming human-What does Runjhun want???
What does she desire??? I'd like to see how the writers explore Runjhun's awakening.
